Biography - Soshian Sarrafpour, MD

Soshian Sarrafpour, MD, is a fellowship-trained glaucoma specialist who sees patients with cataracts, glaucoma, and other anterior segment eye diseases.

As a medical school student, Dr. Sarrafpour chose his specialty after seeing how grateful patients were after visiting their ophthalmologist. “Nothing cheers me up more than seeing a returning patient,” he says. “I enjoy listening to patients speak about how their treatments have affected their lives—from improving their golf game to being able to appreciate how colorful the world is.”
